It's not actually just existing legislation - within the last few years Russia has introduced a number of new laws/regulations which specifically require that some or all of many products, activities, services and so on must be made/done within the country, and that "foreign" sources thereof must be minimised or completely eliminated wherever possible.

London, UK From: Carl Newton [mailto:emcl...@gmail.com] Sent: 03 December 2017 22:20 To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: Re: [PSES] EAC Mark in Russia Brian, I occasionally do work for a very large ITE product company with a worldwide presence and so I've been involved in international certs for a few of their products. This year we learned that Russia started to reject all EAC certs not issued by a Russian national lab. The other CU nation's certs were being rejected. I believe that Belarus has been working on legal action against Russia with the position that Russia is violating agreements. But I had to obtain a 2nd EAC cert from a Russian lab so that this company could resume their exports to Russia. The big-name labs with global market access groups that I spoke with are aware of this. This was the status as of mid-summer. Best regards, Carl On 11/29/2017 2:25 PM, Kunde, Brian wrote: Greetings. I would love to hear your story about dealing with the EAC mark and shipping products to Russia. Though most all countries have laws, acts, or directives on the books, most are not enforced across the board, yet focuses primarily on mass produced consumer electronics, computers, etc.. Individual or custom built equipment, such as scientific/laboratory equipment generally gets in such countries without much trouble. However, our department has been asked to looking into the current status of the EAC marking and what it takes to get single built instruments into Russia. Any information on this would be helpful. We have talked to a couple 3rd party labs and of course they want the entire gambit including full certification testing for Safety, EMC, and RoHS by an accredited lab and a full certification program with factory inspections, the works, blah blah blah. This approach is totally out of the question for the few products that we sell into this market. Let's be reasonable here. So far we haven't had any issues (unless we include a PC in the shipment) but if things are changing we would like to stay on top of things. I would love to hear from you. Thanks for all comments and stories. The Other Brian _____ LECO Corporation Notice: This communication may contain confidential information intended for the named recipient(s) only.
